T3 of Slum Village

Slum Village founded in the early 90′s by 3 childhood friends: Baatin, T3, and producer J Dilla, who all grew up together in the Conant Gardens neighborhood of Detroit, MI
Slum Village landed their first record deal in 1998. Due to label politics, the group was forced to release their album “Best Kept Secret” under the alias J-88. Their now classic record, “Fantastic, Vol. 2″ was not officially released until 2000, dubbed an immediate classic from fans and industry tastemakers. This album featured an A list line up including Busta Rhymes, Common, D’angelo, Jazzy Jeff, Pete Rock, Kurupt, and Q-Tip who passed the torch to Slum Village on the record “Hold Tight”.

T3 remains the sole surviving member of the original lineup. The group members now include T3 and Young Rj. T3 released a mixtape in 2006 titled Olio. Slum Village's 2015 album YES! features songs that were produced by Dilla before his 2006 death.
